Coronavirus (COVID-19): recovery and transition from COVID-19: SPPN 8/2020
June 15, 2020 by Lorraine Carlyle No Comments | Category COVID-19, Procurement news, Scottish Procurement, Scottish Procurement Policy Note, SMEs, suppliers
We’ve issued a new Scottish Procurement Policy Note (SPPN) 8/2020.

We’re urging public bodies and suppliers to work together to develop transition plans to restart contracts where it is safe and sustainable to do so aligning with the route map out of lockdown.
